Rent concessions are not automatic and should not be granted on an automatic basis. Any rent concessions agreed to should be on the basis of proof submitted by the tenant.

Agreements for deferment or waiver should be documented precisely to protect both the landlord and the tenant. Further, they should be in the form of a Deed. Legislation governing real estate in most states and territories requires that real estate instruments be in the form of a deed in order to effect a change in the interest in land. Most of the arrangements being put in place as the result of the coronavirus are temporary. The Deed precedent included in this pack makes it clear that once conditions return to normal the original financial terms of the lease are resumed.

This precedent set gives you forms of a Deed for the Temporary Variation of a Lease that can be used for all types of commercial tenancies, industrial tenancies and retail tenancies.
